Answer:

Number of adult leaders in the troop are 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cub scouts in troop 645 are = 18

As per statement given in the question "The number of scouts is 3 more than five times the number of adult leaders"

Number of scouts = 5(Number of adults) + 3

Here number of scouts = 18

Therefore, equation will become as

18 = 5(Number of adults) + 3

5(Number of adults) = 18 - 3

5(Number of adults) = 15

Number of adults = \frac{15}{5}

                             = 3

Therefore, number of adult leaders in the troop are 3.

Write an equation of a line in point-slope form that has a slope of -2 and passes through (5, -1).
gavmur [86]

Answer:

y+1=-2(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation of a line in 3 different forms including slope intercept, point-slope, and standard depending on the information we have. We have a point given and a slope from the equation. We will chose point-slope since we have a point and the slope.  

We will substitute m=-2 and x_1=5\\y_1=-1.

y-(-1)=-2 (x-5)

y+1=-2(x-5)

This is the equation of the line with slope -2 that passes through (5,-1).
